Abstract
Two novel dialkylmethylidenemalonate (DAMM) analogs: diallylmethyliden emalonate (AAMM, 1b) and cyclohexylethylmethylidenemalonate (CEMM, 1c) were synthesized and evaluated for their capacity to polymerise to st able nanoparticles and to adsorb primaquine diphosphate (PQ). PQ loadi ng onto poly-AAMM (PAAMM, 1b) and poly-CEMM (PCEMM, 1c) was up to 90% in the pH range from 6.0 to 8.5. A significant improvement of the phys icochemical characteristics and the PQ desorption capacity of the nano particles was achieved in this series of PDAMM analogs.
